Re: [lojban] [oz] {dizlo tonga}

[Felipe Gonçalves Assis <felipeg.assis@gmail.com>]

Just tossing some ideas.

I guess the best way to decide is to put things in perspective: Collect a bunch of similar useful concepts and see how we can assign different lujvo to each one in a coherent way. I don't care if the exact meaning of a lujvo is not obvious from its constituents.

By the way, don't forget to consider tremolos and vibratos, which are periodic modulations of amplitude and frequency of a wave. They are the oscillations children can perceive in sound.

I forget who else, but I've seen "mlisnosli" and "tcesnosli" for "tenor" and
"bass".

I think "cmasli" better fits an oscillation with a small amplitude.
